Drill a hole in it
then how would you use it for melting more metal?
Oof, that's commitment.
Cast is some hard shit... Drilling it sucks.
Cast is brittle. It drills super easy. I've had 2x4 from homedepot give me a harder time. Just lean on drill to give it that umph.
Just put it in the dishwasher then.
That’s a sin! The goal is to leave it presentable, as a decoration but ensure no one puts food in it
